Howdy Cats, just an informational post here. While considering the nature of some recent decision-making on the Bobcats football roster, I had a moment of deja vu that brought me back to November of last year. News had just come to light regarding the slated sale of the Texas State University campground. River-loving Bobcat that I am, I was shocked and dismayed that this humble haven along the Blanco had been put up on the developer auction block, so to speak. I wasn't the only one who felt this way, and a pretty rapid public outcry ensued. I'll drop the pertinent news links below, but thankfully, President Damphouse reconsidered the agenda item that was slated for the Board of Trustee's meeting, and all was calm again. During the couple of days between the discovery of the plans and the decision to rescind them, multiple social media groups spring up for Alumni and Citizens to coordinate on saving the camp. I can attest that a good number of Bobcats felt dismayed and betrayed at the plans to sell our camp, but thankfully the waters calmed quickly, so to speak.
